Students of the mdw Work interpretations
Katja Kaiser Curation & Moderation
A concert evening dedicated to the chamber music works of the composer Hans Winterberg (1901-1991): Winterberg, born in Prague, was severely affected in his artistic career by persecution, deportation and exile. As a Jewish composer, he survived Theresienstadt and emigrated to Germany in 1947, where he had to re-establish himself as a musician under difficult circumstances. It was only decades after his death that a rediscovery of his work began - initiated by his grandson Peter Kreitmeir and supported by the Exilarte Centre of the mdw in collaboration with the music publisher Boosey & Hawkes. The evening will be hosted by Katja Kaiser, archivist at the Exilarte Centre.
Organised by the Exilarte Centre of the mdw. Admission free, registration via eventjet.at requested.
